NBA suspension may be painful for fans, but it may have a positive impact on some teams. For example, Los Angeles Clippers star Paul George suffered from injury this season and was unable to perform at an All-Star level. But now that the season is suspended, he has more time to recover. George also said that his current state is better than at any time this season.
During the offseason last year, George had surgery on both his left and right shoulders, which caused him to miss the first 11 games of the season. However, he said in an interview today (13th): "I am now I feel good again. I shoot on the court and do what I usually do. It feels great.”
“I didn’t feel safe at the beginning of the new season because my shoulders were not complete. Recovery. I'm waiting and looking forward to this season. I believe that the doctors will do everything possible to get me to my current state, which I am now without a shoulder injury." George said.
In addition, the Clippers’ Marcus Morris, Landry Shamet, Reggie Jackson and Kawhi Leonard also took a good rest during this offseason. “For the entire team, this A period of time is exactly what we need. Some of our players are fighting injuries. The more time we give us, the more we can recover and the closer we can get to 100% of our performance." George said.
Not only that, George also said: "I think the exchange between us, the team's chemistry has improved a lot, so I think this season's timeout has really brought us benefits."
In 42 games this season, George was troubled by a shoulder injury. He still averaged 21 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.3 steals per game. He also shot 43% from the field and made a good three-pointer. Maintained at 39%.
